"This is such a difficult time to lose someone: grieving and social distancing just do not work together," wrote the daughters of one victim who died in April. According to the county's coroner, as of March 26, 2021, some 974 people had died of COVID-19 here since the pandemic took its first local life a year ago, on March 26, 2020. Many have had their lives recounted on the obituary pages of LNP | LancasterOnline, but only a small number of those tributes have publicly confirmed that their deaths were related to COVID-19. Here are 85 coronavirus victims whose LNP | LancasterOnline obituaries or other reports publicly cited the disease's role in their deaths. They are but a fraction of the ongoing pandemic's local toll so far.
